a whole one and a half

Dylan is 18 months today, and as cute, clever and entertaining as ever. We visited the clinic and he weighs 11kgs and is 82.8cms. He's certainly grown fast these last few months.

I guess it's as good a time as any to record some facts*:

- favourite friends: Taatie and Georgie

- favourite toys: balls, cars, the sandpit and his bath buy (bug)

- favourite pastimes: eating and climbing stairs

- favourite meal: booboo (bloemkool/cauliflower) and sausage

- favourite drink: milk

- favourite fruit: arbei (aardbei/strawberry) and apple

- favourite snack: booey (which I like to think is genius englitch - a combination of biscuit and koekje)

- favourite books: Old McDonald, Trucks and Mouse

- favourite dvds: Mouse on the farm and Bumba

- Bedtime: 7.30pm, but it takes him ages to fall asleep, he chats, reads and sings for at least half an hour.

- Wakes-up: between 6 and 7am.

- Has a 3 hour(!) afternoon nap.

.

What I also think is worth mentioning is that he has a great imagination: treating Georgie like a baby, reading books, making tea and eating pretend biscuits and flying Drew around in his helicopter.

*I got this idea from a post in the Jackson files.
